NANTUCKET – A 31-year-old man was indicted by a Nantucket County grand jury this week on two counts of child rape and four counts of indecent assault and battery on a child older than 14.

The charges against Benjamin M. Carter, of Charleston, S.C., stem from an incident that happened on the island July 4, Assistant Cape and Islands District Attorney Tara Miltimore said. The incident was reported to the police in September after the victim’s family, which is based in Georgia, called the Nantucket Police Department.

Miltimore would not discuss the circumstances of the case, but according to a report in The Inquirer and Mirror, the case involves a 15-year-old who was known to Carter and was vacationing on Nantucket this past summer.

A Barnstable Superior Court arraignment date has not been set. Carter remains free on a $10,000 bond he posted following his earlier arraignment in Nantucket District Court.
